The problem is that they are two separate teams - Running Free and Salomon/Suunto - whose members sometimes join up. And sometimes they've taken advantage of a sponsor's offer to race under a different name. Definitely, those are some Attackpointers who could be more highly rated - Harps, Dee, Phatty, Leanimal, Relentless, Leamer, etc. Also, Team Wild Rose (Revy, Carbon, Carbon's Offset) can't be far off the list.

I noticed the compliment *and* it turns out my previous comment was wrong anyway. :) I went for a long run with three members of the team today, and in fact they *do* qualify as a single team for the ARWC rankings because they raced with the same core group of teammates during the rankings period. (That's what happens when the majority of racers on two teams have babies over a 2-year period!) So their ranking will be updated to reflect that fact before the next list is released.

Thanks for that. However, I'm sure we'll fall back into 44th place or so once all of the other anomalies get sorted out. I really applaud Craig for putting this together. It's a big commitment to execute it accurately but it does create a lot of extra interest and discussion...good for the sport!

Yep, big kudos to Tecnu, DART, Wilderness Traverse (wow, what would the Getawaystix score be if you took his 4 best races?!), MOMAR/Salomon-Suunto/Running Free! And shouldn't Pentathlon be ranked higher? Did some of their races get missed? ARWC 2012 + Untamed New England, +...?
